Was there yesterday about 2pm...didn't see ONE other bike...Probably because it was 90* out. But hey, I beat my time to the top!

Be careful not to state exact ETs in posts like this -- people tend to wild out on you (just ask Rowdy). [insert smiley here].

This combination just sounds unpleasant.

MTB Bill says people refer to it as "baby noble" on his site .

"From here enjoy this singletrack as it is a blast to go down. There are some great lines you can take with rocks and waterbars combinations. Some people refer to this trail as "Baby Noble", as it quite possibly most the most technical "in-town" trail we have, even if a good bit of the technical features are installed waterbars. "

It's a bear of a climb up, and a fun DH down. I liked it better than La Costa, but that's just me.

I'm taking the Enduro and stopping by the house first, so let me know if you want to go, you can meet me at my house at 5:30ish and head out. I can drive.

Bring the knolly!

I'm tempted to bring my Jedi only 'cause I want to get more comfortable on it. It only has one ring in the front, so I can't pedal that for shit.

What are you bringing endo??? Jedi ;)

I have the glory(one ring) with me but if Larry can ride, he'll bring the jedi and I'll leave the glory in the office. The jedi's bars might be too long for me though at 31 in. How's the jedi's maiden voyage?
